  • Deciding whether to use the Cluster and SVM Peering Express Guide
    This guide describes how cluster administrators create authenticated peer relationships between clusters and SVMs to enable the clusters to communicate with each other so that you can replicate data between volumes in different clusters.
  • Prerequisites for cluster peering
    Before you set up cluster peering, you should confirm that the connectivity, port, IP address, subnet, firewall, and cluster-naming requirements are met.
  • Cluster and SVM peering workflow
    Setting up a peering relationship involves preparing each cluster for peering, creating intercluster logical interfaces (LIFs) on each node of each cluster, setting up a cluster peer relationship, and then setting up an SVM peering relationship.
  • Where to find additional information
    After you successfully create a cluster peering relationship, you are ready to protect the availability of your data. There are express guides to help you configure data protection, as well as additional guides to do advanced configuration of cluster peering.
